| Abstract/Contents: | "Changes in the plasma membrane permeability, the activity of three kinds of antioxidant enzymes, and the malondialdehyde (MDA) content of leaves and roots under slowly increasing water stress (plant watering stopped after plant coverage reached 95% or above) were studied for the cool-season turfgrass, Festuca arundinacea cv Houndog and warm-season turfgrass, Stenotaphrum secundatum cv Bitter blue grown in pots. The results showed that under water stress, the soil volumetric water content of tall fescue decreased more quickly than that of S. secundatum, and the plasma membrane permeability and MDA content of F. arundinacea had greater increase. SOD, POD and CAT all showed an increase in activity in the early phase after watering was stopped and then a decrease in activity with further increase in water stress, and the activity decrease occurred sooner for F. anundinacea [arundinacea] than S. secundatum. It is suggested that under the same level of water stress, differences in speed of plant water loss affecting the level of cell damage, MDA content, and differences in the times of activity decrease of SOD, POD and CAT, may be an important reason for the differences between the drought resistance mechanisms of the two turfgrasses." |
